Solution

The correct option is D Presence of intercellular space
Parenchymatous cells are thin walled polyhedral, isodiametric living cells with sufficient cytoplasm and one or more nuclei. Parenchyma may or may not have intercellular spaces; parenchyma in endodermis lack intercellular spaces but these cells in hydrophytes have large intercellular spaces filled with air.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C.
